Chapter 142 Snow

When Luo Quan returned to Tokyo, snow was still falling on the streets. The cold wind carrying ice crystals made every passerby's cheeks turn red. The entire city's sky was covered with snowflakes.

Looking at the pairs of footprints on the street that were quickly buried in the snow, Luo Quan suddenly felt something.

Thinking that Japanese fans had been urging her to release new songs, she then remembered that she seemed to have not written a Japanese song for several months.

Although "Rite of Passage" is still dominating the Oricon charts, and no one can shake her dominance, sooner or later a song will lose its freshness after listening to it for a long time. Only by constantly introducing new things can fans remember it for a long time. she.

Thinking of this, Luo Quan tweeted:

"It snowed heavily just after I returned to Tokyo. I suddenly remembered that I haven't sung a Japanese song for a long time. I will use the snow as inspiration to sing a song for everyone today."

As soon as the tweet came out, it quickly received tens of thousands of likes and comments:

"You finally remembered us."

"Is there only one song? It would be great to just release an album!"

""Coming of Age" was released half a year ago. When is the next Japanese album planned to be released?"

"I support every record you make, but when will you release a normal MV?"

Many Japanese fans are urging Luoquan to release the next Japanese album, and some fans have expressed their expectations for the new songs, but in the end this comment hit the point.

For a singer, most songs will have matching MVs. This MV will become the best material for fans to interpret the songs. At the same time, it is also the best way for the singer to convey his album thoughts to the outside world.

However, Luo Quan has not filmed a MV since his debut.

Previously, Lin Zheyuan helped her film "Wet SHEN Temptation", which was also for the promotion of the EP "Spring Water" and was not an official MV.

The song Luo Quan released later was a hassle-free one. Apart from the sound, the video only included a selfie of himself.

The key is that she has such a beautiful face and such a hot figure. It would be a waste not to shoot ten or eight MVs for her.

I don’t know about other countries, but at least in China, if she is willing to shoot a few larger-scale MVs, the album sales will not be as bleak as they are now!

However, she really doesn't know how to do these things. Except for a few MVs that can be called works of art, aren't most of the others just singers standing in front of the camera and dancing? What kind of nutrition was shot in this kind of MV?

So Luo Quan would rather not shoot these things, wouldn't it be better to spend his energy on song production?

Therefore, in the face of the fans' eager expectations, Luo Quan could only cruelly refuse:

"Sorry, I really don't know how to shoot MVs, but I have made a movie. If you are interested, you can come to the cinema to see me."

Yes, the fans' expectations were all in vain.

It can only be said that Luo Quan is suffering more than everyone thinks. If a European and American female singer heard such high calls from fans, she would have shot a large-scale MV to stimulate album sales.

In any case, although the MV that I thought about day and night is gone, at least Shinge Luoquan has personally agreed to it. With her speed, she will be able to meet everyone in the early hours of tonight at the latest.

In order to record songs, Luo Quan postponed his plan to report back to school and went to Sony first.

When I arrived on the third floor, I happened to see Director Ishimura standing outside the recording studio chatting with his assistant.

"Luo Quan, are you back from South Africa?" Director Ishimura was very surprised to see Luo Quan. He only knew that Luo Quan went to South Africa to film a movie.

"I just came back today. I saw fans saying that I haven't sung a Japanese song for a long time, so I thought about coming to the company to record one. I won't release the record for this single. How about putting it on the platform for free?" Luo Quan said to him in a consultative tone. Director Ishimura said.

After all, Sony wanted to make money, and she also wanted to use their recording studio. If she said it was free, it would be too overbearing.

"Of course." Director Ishimura said without hesitation, "The song is your own, and it is up to you to decide whether to charge for it, but remember to apply for copyright later."

"Don't worry, I will never forget it." Luo Quan nodded.

Entering the recording studio, Luo Quan, who didn't have any music scores, started making the accompaniment directly from memory. Director Ishimura looked outside and shook his head for a while and sighed: "How long does it take for such a musical genius to come out!"

This song recorded by Luo Quan is synonymous with Japanese winter love songs. As long as there is a collection of playlists such as "Winter Songs" and "Winter Love Songs", this song will definitely be in it.

In addition, this song has been covered many times by singers from other countries and is quite popular.

It is worth mentioning that when the original singer was filming the MV, he deliberately shot in a zero-degree environment in order to make the effect realistic enough. He was really dedicated.

It's a pity that Luo Quan doesn't shoot a MV, so this act will probably never be replicated.

After producing so many songs, Luo Quan became more and more proficient in her craftsmanship, and the speed of producing songs became faster and faster. She had finished producing this song in a little more than an hour.

This was already ridiculously fast. When she came in, the singer next door was still discussing with the producer what tone should be used for the accompaniment of the song. Luo Quan's song had been recorded here, but there was no discussion yet on the reason there.

Amid the surprised and admiring looks of the seniors, Luo Quan Shi Shiran left the recording studio.

At 7:30 p.m., Luo Quan’s new song was released on major music platforms, and he also tweeted:

"Here comes the new song "雪花 (雪花)". I hope you and your partner can always be happy this winter."

Within fifteen minutes, the top spot on the new song list and hot song list was occupied by "Snow Flower". The enthusiasm of the fans was beyond imagination.

When she said in the afternoon that she would release a new song today, countless people were refreshing the music software on their phones and Twitter, just waiting to hear her singing as soon as possible.

Then as soon as the new song came out, the data exploded.

But this is not surprising. Since "Rite of Passage" became a hit, she has passed the stage of accumulating fans perfectly. The song "Don't Give Up" has made her national popularity reach a level unmatched by anyone since the new century. I dare not say that this situation is unprecedented, but there will certainly be no one in the future.

With so many die-hard fans, it is not so strange that the song data explodes after releasing a song.

As usual, this song received unanimous praise from the industry and outside the industry as soon as it was released, and in addition to Onodera Ryusuke, more professional music critics also joined the ranks of Luoquan:

"A slow love song full of spring water style, the melody is as beautiful and soft as her singing. The theme of winter love songs has actually been written for a long time, and I have not been as sentimental as I was when I was a teenager over the years, but this song gave me The heart that has been silent for many years brings a different kind of throbbing. I think this is a good song that can be called a classic!"

"The annual Japan Record Awards will be held at the beginning of March. I am really looking forward to how many awards Izumi can win. Sales and reputation are both overwhelming. An album of the quality of "Rite of Passage" has been so popular in the past ten years. It’s hard to find one in the works that can compare with it, and what’s even more terrifying is that this is just the beginning for her, she is only nineteen years old this year!”

"As fast as ever, with the same high quality as always, I think pop music has been completely played by Luo Quan. She needs to think about more in-depth works, and has worked hard to integrate new styles with traditional pop styles to create new ones. music.

This may be too harsh for a newcomer who has just debuted, but for a genius, this is our most eager expectation for her as a musician! "

To be honest, Luo Quan was a little frightened when he saw these comments. It's not that he shouldn't brag, but would it be too much to brag like this?

She only turned nineteen on the third day of March this year (lunar calendar), so she was asked to create a new style of music. The expectations for her were really not high at all.

However, it is understandable. After all, many geniuses in history have made all kinds of shocking achievements at the age of twenty, not to mention peerless geniuses like Mozart and Gauss who have already emerged at the age of twelve or thirteen.

Luo Quan knows her own level, whether she is beautiful, has excellent singing skills, or has realistic acting skills, she can happily accept all these.

Because these are her external manifestations and cannot be changed by anyone's will.

But she would never dare to claim the title of "musical genius". This was a title that required real talent and learning. Even if she had a world-wide music library, she would not dare to arrogantly claim to be a genius.

Therefore, when these musicians pursued her so much, Luo Quan was actually a little panicked. She was wondering if she was acting too evil and made these people have unrealistic ideas about her?

Obviously at the beginning she just wanted to make some money through singing, but unknowingly she reached a position where she needed to bring innovative music styles to the Japanese music scene. This is something that many music industry leaders would not dare to say lightly, but she was criticized by these The musician rested his head on her head calmly.

Luo Quan said she was under a lot of pressure.

But these seniors spoke, and Luo Quan had to respond. After all, this year's Japan Record Awards will rely on their faces. At least for now, they still need to behave well:

"Thank you seniors for your encouragement and praise. I will continue to work hard to bring good songs to the public."

He just brought good songs to the public, without saying anything about the genre. Luo Quan felt that saying so was leaving a way out for himself.

Originally, Luo Quan thought that today would be the end, and she would report back to school tomorrow and start her ordinary study life.

However, a phone call disrupted all the peace of her future life.

"Hello, is this Miss Luo Quan?"

"I am."

"This is the Tokyo Imperial Palace, and I am Maeda Keinosuke."
